Chris,
Let me get this straight. You are saying that you feel that Lockman
intends Matthew 9:1 to be it's own paragraph? One verse.
And from your quote below, you also feel that they intend for Rev 13:1
to be it's own paragraph?
I wholeheartedly disagree, and don't feel we can solve this by more
traffic. I appeal to Caesar. (Steve, you around?)
Patrick, I would argue that if an entire paragraph can exist inside of
one verse, then <p> should be allow in <verse>. Any chance you could
just add <p> to <verse> for me?
Everyone, after spending a week arguing for a practicle addition for a
real world case that I feel is necessary, I'm very discouraged to not
get any concessions. We have added so many other things that go against
the rules you all cite: we have page breaks-- why not force them to
containers. We have line breaks-- same argument. I'm just frustrated
to have to spend one week on a real world problem that I can't get solved.
I don't have time to defend my practicle position any longer against
idealisms. Please vote and let me know if I'll need to use non-OSIS
recognized tags to do my paragraph breaks, continuation quotes, and Old
Testament citations.
-Troy.
